The news is out as of the recently held PGA show in Orlando Florida, that two forces in the sportswear industry have joined forces on a great new project.

Carnoustie Sportswear and Nextbelt Collection have come together in creating a new line of coordinating belts to enhance their sportswear collections.

Nexbelt is a fast mover on the golf scene, while Carnoustie has been recognized as an industry leader for 20 years.

Carnoustie President Marshall Mancillas shows off the Carnoustie Sportswear line at the recent PGA Merchandise show in Orlando.

The Carnoustie by Nexbelt collection has tumbled premium leather straps, and contrast stitching, the Icon Carnoustie buckle along with Nexbelt’s ratcheting system called PreciseFit that allows the wearer to adjust in 1/4 inch increments, providing extreme comfort and wear ability.

“We are very excited to be partnering with Carnoustie and offering an upscale collection of belts that do seamlessly integrate with their sportswear,” said Eddie Rowland, Co-Founder of Nexbelt. “Carnoustie is recognized for making and designing some of the finest golf apparel on the market.
